Bistro

The Bistro at Red Newt Cellars is committed to presenting cuisine that reflects the subtle seasonal variations of the region’s agriculture. To that end, Debra changes the entire menu every 3-4 weeks. She starts by contacting local farmers to obtain feedback on what is available right then and what is the freshest and the best. From there, she creates original recipes and dishes literally from the ground up.
